Understanding the Perils of Pet Urine on Oriental and Persian Rugs
Pet urine can be a rug owner’s worst nightmare, especially when dealing with delicate fibers like wool and silk. The urine’s immediate acidic nature causes a fast reaction with these fibers, leading to potential damage and unpleasant odors permeating your living space. If not promptly and properly treated, the urine undergoes a chemical transformation into an alkaline state, exacerbating the risk of color loss, dry rot, and permanent staining. This is a situation that demands immediate professional attention to prevent further damage.
This phenomenon isn’t just about aesthetics—leaving urine untreated can lead to a breakdown of rug fibers, resulting in physical damage that compromises your precious rugs’ functionality and structural integrity. The odor associated with pet urine arises from crystals that form as the urine dries, embedding themselves deep within the fibers and the rug’s foundation. This makes your living environment less inviting and can become a recurring issue, as your pet has now “marked” their territory if the urine crystals are not completely removed. It’s important to act swiftly to prevent these long-term consequences.
The Specialized Cleaning Process of Oriental Rug Salon
Oriental Rug Salon recognizes the unique challenges posed by pet accidents on Oriental and Persian rugs. Our specialized cleaning process is tailored to address and rectify these challenges effectively. The process begins with the rugs immersed in a live enzyme solution for up to twenty-four hours, meticulously formulated to break down the urine crystals. This crucial step ensures that the rug’s foundation is free from any remnants of urine and associated bacteria, which is essential for eliminating odors and preventing further damage.
After the enzyme treatment, each rug is thoroughly rinsed with pH-conditioned water with additional live enzymes and allergen-free deodorizers, repeatedly, if necessary, until all traces of urine crystals and odor are gone. This careful and comprehensive cleaning removes the nauseous odor and traces of urine crystals, restores the rug’s aesthetic value, and extends its life.
